Jerry, do you rivet the "scissors" removed from the old leather straps
to the OpTech nylon?

Jeff,
I have been attaching Op-Tech straps to Rolleiflex "Scissors" strap
ends and supplying them to RUGers for years!

The OP/Tech straps do work great & I have one on my MX-EVS, however,
some of the other old Rolleiflexes don't seem to have an easy way to
attach a normal strap.

My suggestion would be an OP/Tech strap -- they are great for heavy
cameras. These neoprene straps make any of the old, heavy classic
cameras appear lighter-weght than they are...

Get a wide strap as the thin ones will cut into your shoulder and
neck.
I've been thinking about procuring some horse reins and getting my
favorite
shoe repair guy to make some elegant straps from those. Mercy!

I bought a small camera bag at a local store that is small and fits
one Rollei and some filters and a flash if needed. Made by Western
Pack. Nice and relatively inconspicuous.
